In this paper, we derive the lower bounds for the gradients of viscosity solutions to the Hamilton--Jacobi equation, where the convex Hamiltonian depends on the unknown function. We obtain gradient estimates using two different methods.…
For a Hamilton-Jacobi equation defined on a network, we introduce its vanishing viscosity approximation. The elliptic equation is given on the edges and coupled with Kirchhoff-type conditions at the transition vertices. We prove that there…
In this paper we consider viscosity solutions of a class of non-homogeneous singular parabolic equations $$\partial_t u-|Du|^\gamma\Delta_p^N u=f,$$ where $-1<\gamma<0$, $1<p<\infty$, and $f$ is a given bounded function. We establish…
For non convex Hamiltonians, the viscosity solution and the more geometric minimax solution of the Hamilton-Jacobi equation do not coincide in general. They are nevertheless related: we show that iterating the minimax procedure during…
In this paper, we discuss all the possible pairs $(u,c)\in C(M,\mathbb R)\times\mathbb R$ solving (in the sense of viscosity) the contact Hamilton-Jacobi equation \[ H (x, d_xu, u) = c,\quad x\in M \] of which $M$ is a closed manifold and…
We study the large time behavior of the sublinear viscosity solution to a singular Hamilton-Jacobi equation that appears in a critical Coagulation-Fragmentation model with multiplicative coagulation and constant fragmentation kernels. Our…
The classical Hopf's lemma can be reformulated as uniqueness of continuation result. We aim in the present work to quantify this property. We show precisely that if a solution $u$ of a divergence form elliptic equation attains its maximum…
We prove the optimal $W^{2,\infty}$ regularity for variational problems with convex gradient constraints. We do not assume any regularity of the constraints; so the constraints can be nonsmooth, and they need not be strictly convex. When…
We study the periodic homogenization of convex Hamilton-Jacobi equations on perforated domains with Dirichlet boundary conditions. By analyzing the optimal control representation of the solutions and the properties of the metric function…
We study the nonhomogeneous Dirichlet problem for first order Hamilton-Jacobi equations associated with Tonelli Hamiltonians on a bounded domain $\Omega$ of $\R^n$ assuming the energy level to be supercritical. First, we show that the…
Suppose that $H(x,u,p)$ is strictly decreasing in $u$ and satisfies Tonelli conditions in $p$. We show that each viscosity solution of $H(x,u,u_x)=0$ can be reached by many viscosity solutions of $$ w_t+H(x,w,w_x)=0, $$ in a finite time.
In this article, the notion of viscosity solution is introduced for the path-dependent Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (PHJB) equations associated with the optimal control problems for path-dependent stochastic differential equations. We identify…
On a smooth, non-compact, complete, boundaryless, connected Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$, there are three kinds of objects that have been studied extensively: $\bullet$ Viscosity solutions to the Hamilton-Jacobi equation determined by the…
We present comparison principles, Lipschitz estimates and study state constraints problems for degenerate, second-order Hamilton-Jacobi equations.
This paper is devoted to the study of uniform $W^{1,\frac{np}{n-p}}$- and $W^{2,p}$-estimates for viscosity solutions to fully nonlinear, uniformly elliptic, periodic homogenization problems, up to boundaries, subject to Dirichlet boundary…
The Hamilton-Jacobi equation on metric spaces has been studied by several authors; following the approach of Gangbo and Swiech, we show that the final value problem for the Hamilton-Jacobi equation has a unique solution even if we add a…
We consider the evolutionary Hamilton-Jacobi equation \begin{align*} w_t(x,t)+H(x,Dw(x,t),w(x,t))=0, \quad(x,t)\in M\times [0,+\infty), \end{align*} where $M$ is a compact manifold, $H:T^*M\times R\to R$, $H=H(x,p,u)$ satisfies Tonelli…
